This cloud may either evaporate or disappear, or it may pass to the cirrus, or sink lower and become a cirro-stratus.

The first is the Cirro-cumulus, consisting of small roundish and well-defined masses, in close horizontal arrangement.

That afternoon we noticed very fine iridescent colouring in cirro-cumulus clouds as they crossed the sun.

Earlier in the year, a double corona had been seen when the moon was shining through cirro-cumulus clouds.

Through openings in these clouds an upper layer of cirro-stratus or alto-stratus may almost invariably be seen.
